Sorry, I know it's been awhile since my last post. Honestly, these days managing the blog is at the bottom of my list. Life is busy as always. Some great news though! T has finally moved up to competitive level in gymnastics! We are so excited for her. Her coach has been working with her for some time to get her ready. She's looking forward to competing in floor and beam. I think those are her two favorite events. Along with the prestige of being on team comes lots of sacrifice. T will be at the gym about 12 hours a week, which includes some ballet training. I've talked with her a lot about this and how she's going to miss out on a lot of the freedoms other kids have. I've asked her if she wanted to take a break and try something new. Her reply, "No mom. I want to do gymnastics." As she moves up in levels, the hours will also increase. I've debated about letting her take this path, but ultimately it's what she REALLY wants to do. And she's got a talent for it. I can't take that away from her. We'll see how it goes and if it's something that's really making her happy. That's all that really matters, I think.
Moving on....I've posted some pictures of our weekend with Aunt Me Me, my sister who came to celebrate her birthday at Disneyland. We always have a lot of fun with her. She is truly the life of the party. After a very crowded day at "the happiest place on earth", we spent Saturday in Newport Beach where we took the Balboa ferry over to eat at The Crab Cooker. My favorite restaurant on the planet! A great weekend with a great little sister! I love you Emilie!
